Nikki Bella Reflects on RAW Return, Promises Changes Ahead of Tag Team Match – Nikki Bella is taking time to look back on her recent Monday Night RAW appearance and is already focused on leveling up for her next in-ring outing. Speaking on SiriusXM’s The Nikki and Brie Show, the WWE Hall of Famer opened up about how she felt following her match against Roxanne Perez and the feedback she received from those closest to her.
“I feel great,” Nikki said. “What I love is every time I go out there, I’m being pushed harder. I’m learning more about myself in this era and I sit and watch, and I get feedback from like you and Bryan, from myself, and I know what I need to do next and how I need to improve even more, the little things I could change, but I was so proud of Monday and I got a lot of great feedback and I mean, your girl was trending number one worldwide girl.”
The former Divas Champion admitted that she’s been stepping out of her comfort zone, especially competing against much younger opponents.
“There’s just a lot of moments for me where I just continued to push myself out of my comfort zone,” she continued. “I wanted to bring in more moves and challenge myself and things that I used to do and I’m going against someone with a 20-year difference, you know?”
Brie Garcia praised her sister for being a positive example for women approaching or past 40. “And it’s nice for women of my age and older, and even I think, you know, women who are coming up on 40 to see a woman on television competing against people in their youth in their 20s. It’s nice to see that. It feels good… you’re doing it for all of us mamas, and we love it.”
Nikki thanked Brie for the kind words and teased some upcoming adjustments for her next match. “What I love is just for myself, I get to continue to see me grow, get better, keep bringing it up another notch and I know what I’m going to do next week for the Tag Match. I know the things that I’m going to work on this week in the gym and in training and I know the changes I’ll make and I’m not even going to tell you them because I want you to point them out.”
Nikki’s latest appearance on the October 27 episode of RAW ended in a post-match confrontation involving Raquel Rodriguez and Stephanie Vaquer, setting the stage for a tag team showdown. On next week’s RAW, Nikki Garcia will team with Vaquer to face Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez in what promises to be a high-energy continuation of their developing rivalry.
